2018 Emmys: Who Will Win? Who Should Win?

Emmy winners tend to fit in one of three categories: 1) the same choice year after year (see: Julia Louis-Dreyfus for Veep), 2) the buzzy newcomer (see: The Handmaid’s Tale), or 3) someone who seems completely random unless you watch the show (see: Louie Anderson for Baskets). With that in mind, it’s usually not to hard to predict who the TV Academy will recognize, but there are always a few surprises. Below are my quick thoughts on who I believe is most likely to collect the trophies in most of the major categories, along with whom I would vote for if I had a ballot. We will find out how it all goes down when the 70th Primetime Emmy Awards air Monday, September 17 on NBC.
